Goofy that is for sure the kind of thing you can bring up w/ people and w/ some good negotiation get at least a cash bonus if they don't award you the company stock from August.

I doubt he gets much sympathy. Not unusual for options to be granted on a set date. My company does it once a year in December and you had to be employed on Jan 1 of that year to be eligible.
Recent SEC investigations have focused on stock grant dates and a lot of companies have changed their policies to have set dates that options are granted. This avoids a lot of issues.
I'm not saying he shouldn't bring it up, only that in the current environment his company probably not being unreasonable.
